Dog Gone

There may be more money spent on dogs than there is on national defense. I, being an animal lover, still can’t understand people that spend literally thousands of dollars per year on a dog. It defies logic.

Today, I have discovered that there is a product that offers GPS tracking for your dog. It’s called, ‘TAGG’ The Pet Tracker. It cost a couple hundred dollars and then there’s a monthly fee. To do what? Keep track of Phideaux (Fido). All you have to have is money and a computer or smart phone and you will be alerted if the hound goes out of bounds.

The way it works is you put a device on the dog collar, and set up an area, say your backyard, on your computer that you want puppy to be confined to. When said dog strays from the zone, you get an email or text alert.

The tracker shows where your dog is on a map displayed on your phone or computer. Then all you have to do is stop what you are doing and go get the muddy grubber out of your neighbors flower garden.

Wouldn’t humanity be better served using this technology for wives to put on their husbands? Or, vise versa?

In case you haven’t thought of it, a rope also works for knowing where Rover is.  It's a whole lot cheaper.

Rope won’t work on husbands.
